Keep seeing posts with 4 tractors and 4 FEL, or 2 tractors and 2 FEL. All the while listening to George Thorogood sing 1 bourban, 1 scotch and 1 beer. I must add I have 1 tractor, 1 FEL, and 1 rotary cutter.

Can not imagine having a tractor without the FEL. This winter a FEL and a blower on the back is about as good as it gets.

As stated earlier "The FEL was the primary reason I bought my tractor"
It is either a FEL or a hand shovel. Which would you choose?
A farmer plowing and planting a few hundred acres may not want to lug around a FEL but myself being only a general homeowner with a couple acres a FEL is very useful.

well i have heard of 1 guy that went an got a new tractor,an he wouldnt put a loader on it at all.



I guess im the one you heard of, I cant stand that they give away loaders now days to intice buyer. ive tried asking for a discount on some new tractors since i didnt need the loader. IN MY oppinion only purpose built backhoes need a loader not these small farm tractors it messess up the center of gravity when brush cutting on hills. it also makes the tractor to long front to back when mowing in tight places.

i use my tractor with the loader on it to shredd in tight places.the loader comes in handy when pushing over stuff for the shredder.

Part of the reason I bought my 790 was the loader! I was afraid I was going to tear up my 140 using the loader too hard. Sold the 140 & JD 520 to buy the 790. ~~ grnspot110

I don't want to be without a FEL, there is always something that needs done that I'm able to do from the seat of the tractor, other than being on the ground digging, lifting, or pushing. With the recent snows we have had my loader has gotten a real workout. There are just too many places the blade will not get to and move the snow where it needs to go.

My loader is on my Kubota B7200. It is not a quick attach, so it just stays on. I also have a rear blade, and a box blade which are frequently used with the loader. I'm lucky enough to also have a Kubota 2410 to use when I don't need to loader.
